95 gt vacuum line and idle???

I was over at a buddies house working on getting his idle straighted up on his 95 gt

we found alot of rotten vacuum lines and such, plus the screen under the pcv valve was clogged.

but heres my question when removing the upper intake manifold I noticed 2 hoses broke that were coming from the bottom of the upper intake manifold.
one hose is smaller and I know where it goes and the other is larger (about 3/8 hose) I have no idea were it goes to. I need to figure out were it goes.
please help so I can get his car back up and running.

Also can some one tell me how to set the hard idle on the 94-95 gts.

The 3/8" hose should "tee" into the pcv system

do you have a diagram or a pic or ruff drawing or better description.
cause there is also a vacuum line coming out of the driver side of the upper intake that i thought went directly to the pcv valve
so i'm still a little confused

It goes from the pcv to a tee then from the tee it goes to the drivers side of the intake and also to the middle of the bottom driverside of the intake.

I just did a top end job on my 94. The larger hose should have the PCV on the lower end of the hose. It will look like a small plastic cap. With the hose completely off in your hand, you can shake the hose and hear the valve rattle in the PCV. That PCV end plugs into the hole at the back of the lower manifold where you mentioned the clogged screen. If the PCV doesn't rattle then it is clogged also. The PCV hose should be about an inch diameter. That is how mine is. The other hose is a vacume line and goes as the others are saying.
